Chapter 1620 The Big Shuffle

The sun was rising high, and the window casements could not block the spring light. The bright sunlight penetrated through the gaps, illuminating the Guangzheng Hall brightly.At this time, the main hall of the Guangzheng Hall was once again full of people. After two days of adjournment, the internal and external officials gathered here again under the edict.

However, this time, the previous policy discussions and disputes no longer continued, and the person who presided over the palace meeting was replaced by Prince Liu Yang, and they were not allowed to argue anymore.

The atmosphere was somewhat serious, Liu Yang was in the chief seat with a serious expression, Zhao Pu was in the head of the courtiers with a calm expression, Liu Xu, Liu Xi, Liu Fang and other kings were also accompanying them.

The strangeness in the air can be felt by individuals, and it also makes those local officials who are still planning to "struggle" cautious and dare not speak rashly.

This situation is obviously not right, and when it comes to the rumors that have flowed out of the palace in the past two days, it is even more not a good omen. Traces are gone.

"Is everyone here?" The hall was completely quiet, Liu Yang also spoke, and turned to ask Murong Defeng who was waiting beside him.

Murong Defeng said: "Return to Your Highness, all the ministers of the central branch and the ministers of the Taoist department are here!"

Liu Yang raised his eyes and glanced around, did not stay on anyone for a moment, and said calmly: "Today, all the ministers are summoned, and there is an edict to be announced, please listen carefully!"

After finishing speaking, regardless of the reaction of the ministers, he motioned to Murong Defeng: "Read it!"

d
"Yes!" Murong Defeng bowed and saluted, then respectfully picked up a heavy imperial edict from the big case with a serious expression on his face.

Standing on the side of the case, spread out the imperial edict, and Murong Defeng read out in a loud voice: "Under the door, orders are as on the right. The governor of Hexi, Lei Dexiang, moved to the south of Shannan; the governor of Gyeonggi West Province, Wang Ming, moved to Hexi; The chief minister Wang Renshan moved to Huaixi; the southeast transshipment envoy Shi Dexun moved to Zhejiang; the Hebei transshipment envoy Han Hui moved to the southeast transshipment envoy;

Yang Kefa, governor of Huaidong, moved to Jinghu Lake; Shi Xizai, governor of Hedong, moved to Hunan; Zhang Yong, governor of Jiannan, moved to Hebei; Li Hongwei, governor of Hebei, moved to Gyeonggi;

Fan Min, the governor of Guangxi, moved to Hebei; Zhong Mo, the governor of Xuanwei, moved to Henan; Wang You of Gyeonggi West Province moved to Fujian; Li Shaoyou moved to Jiangnan."

This imperial edict is very straightforward, simple and direct, and even the format is completely different from the past. There is no parallel prose confrontation in a place where there are no cloudy mountains and mists, and it is just pointing at the core issues in plain language. .

The content is even more shocking, but it is a large-scale mobilization of the chief officials of the Han Dynasty. This kind of mobilization is not unheard of, but on a scale like this one, it involves the transfer of more than half of the Dao-level chief officials in the world. It is still unprecedented.

Moreover, it came so suddenly, so directly, without even giving people much reaction time, it was announced directly in the hall.It has to be said that such an approach is easy to attract criticism, and it is also easy to make the place unstable.

In the political system of the Great Han Empire, the main administrative officials already belonged to the core ruling class, and each person and each appointment had a great deal to do with it.

The imperial court should also pay special attention to the promulgation of its position.Under normal circumstances, whether it is job transfer or appointment, it needs to be comprehensively inspected, weighed by multiple parties, and then issued. However, so many people are involved, which is enough for the central government and some Hanlin who wrote the imperial edict to make a decision. A colorful article.

But this time, there is no official article, and it is almost directly telling these officials of the frontiers and the ministers of the Zhu Kingdom that the imperial court has made a decision, and you only need to obey.

It is very difficult to convince people's hearts with such an approach, but at the same time, it also shows the determination and will of the imperial court.The ministers present here are all experienced in officialdom, and most of them have clear and accurate judgments about such a situation, and the clearer the cognition, the heavier the mood.

It took Murong Defeng a quarter of an hour to read out this series of transfer appointments. After the series of names and positions were announced, these ministers also went through a complicated mental journey.

From surprise to shock and surprise, to silence and numbness, the atmosphere also seemed weird at the same time.The dull ones are still immersed in the shock, while the smart ones have already guessed the deep meaning behind it, and the more advanced ones have fully accepted this fact, and began to consider the pros and cons of the series of personnel transfer arrangements just now, especially those who Those on the relocation list.

In this change, it is not just the transfer of positions, there are appointments and dismissals, and some people are asked to dismiss officials, such as Ji Guogong Xue Juzheng, Geng Guogong Wu Xingde, Liaodong Governor Song Xiong, etc. Of course, Most of them are because they are too old, but for those who are still old, they feel wronged and unacceptable.
Liu Yang also knew in his heart how much impact such a decision would have, and he could understand the feelings of these ministers, but he had no choice but to follow Emperor Liu's pressure, so he and Zhao Pu could only obey.

For a while, the Guangzheng Hall was silent except for the silence, but the emotional fluctuations were very violent. When the ministers and workers present slowed down, Liu Yang just opened his mouth and asked softly: "Do you have any objections to the edict?"

Did not answer, some raised their eyes to look at the prince, hesitated to speak, some just lowered their heads in meditation, silent, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Your Highness, is this a bit hasty? I didn't prepare beforehand. It involves the transfer of so many important positions. If I act too hastily, I'm afraid it will cause chaos, cause local shock, and make people feel uneasy!" After a while, Lu Duoxun Can't help but speak, stood up and bowed to Liu Yang.

Among such ministers, Lu Duoxun's mood was extremely complicated and a little depressed.His position has not changed, he is still the Chancellor of the Political Affairs Hall, a leader of the central faction, but to him, this is not the crux of the problem.

The key point is that the imperial court was going to carry out such a drastic and major personnel change, and he could only get a few fragments of news through other means beforehand.

He is in charge of the supervision department of the imperial court. Although he has no power to organize personnel, he has not participated in the changes involving so many officials in the frontier and other areas. What does this mean? It means that he is excluded from the core power circle of the imperial court , This made it difficult for Luderson, who has always felt good about himself for many years, to accept.

To be honest, at this time, Ludoxun was somewhat unbalanced psychologically.Therefore, under the large court, he also became the first person to raise doubts.

As for Lu Duoxun's reaction, Liu Yang was not too surprised, nodded calmly, and asked the others: "Are there any other officials who have any objections?"

If there is no answer, or if you just want to say something, you are afraid to say it. In this case, following the crowd is the best choice.

Take Wang Renshan as an example. He has some stains on him. Whether it was during the Pingshu period or when he was in Yunnan, he had some excessive behaviors. Emperor Liu did not punish him severely, but always reused him. duty.

This time, if he were to be transferred from Liangzhe to Huaixi, he would naturally be a hundred unhappy. Compared with Liangzhe, a land of fish and rice, Huaixi can only be described as a backcountry, and there is no comparison at all.

But no matter what, it was still a chief official, in charge of one side. After staying in Yunnan for so many years, Huaixi was still in the Central Plains at least.At least, he was only more than 60 years old, and he was not directly "resigned". Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not so difficult to accept.

What is really unacceptable may only be the gap between the rich and the poor, the size of power, and the impact or even breaking of the interest structures and party relationships built in the past.

Not to mention all the internal and external ministers in the palace, but there are definitely many people who have the mentality of Wang Renshan, so naturally they will not speak rashly.

Seeing that no one spoke, Liu Yang turned his eyes back to Lu Duoxun, who was already a little embarrassed, and said calmly: "Since Prime Minister Lu has an opinion, it means that there are objections to this edict and this system! In this way, all my lords, please give me some advice." Sit down, I will go to the Chongzheng Palace to ask for an order, and then discuss it!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Yang got up suddenly, without delaying his steps, striding forward vigorously to leave the hall.Regardless of other people's reactions, Lu Duoxun panicked and hurried to his seat. He staggered in a hurry and called out nervously, "His Royal Highness, wait a minute!"

Liu Yang stopped, slowly came back to his senses, looked at Lu Duoxun who was sweating slightly, and said softly: "Lu Xianggong, do you have anything else to say, do you want me to report it on your behalf?"

"Your Highness misunderstood!" Lu Duoxun changed his words very sincerely, and his attitude changed completely, and he said solemnly: "I have no objection to the central decision-making, and I will lead all the subordinates of the procuratorate to do my best. Support and cooperate with the implementation of the imperial edict!"

Liu Yang didn't want to laugh at Lu Duoxun's repeated performance like a clown. He sighed in his heart, turned around and sat down, pondered for a while, and confirmed again: "Do you have any objections?"

Now, Zhao Kuangyi stood up first, expressing his agreement.Song Yanwo, Li Hongwei, and Li Ye, who were involved, also quickly stood up and expressed their obedience. Compared with other ministers, they, relatives of the emperor, needed to sit up straight.

Zhao Pu didn't say a word all the time, he seemed very low-key, but when Lu Duoxun showed his performance, his eyelids were slightly raised, showing a hint of disdain. If it wasn't for Emperor Liu's protection, how could this person beat him.
